Nowadays,
the world share one crucial mission that is to fight against climate change.
Meanwhile, many hectares of land are neglected without adequate agriculture or
forestry. It would be a waste of nature if we did not take action and take care
of our land. All land can be planted no matter how wet or dry or full of weeds
it is. We just need to choose the right method.
Cocoon is a good example of a planting method that is herbicide-free and still keeps the weeds away. It is a biodegradable paper donut which can store almost 20 liters of water inside and release the moisture for long enough for the plant to become stronger and bigger.
The
cocoon has a lid, which prevents other species from growing near the planted
tree. A vertical tube covers outside the tree and hides it from animals such as
elks and deer. It also has mini climate that stabilizes the moisture and
protects the tree from the overheating of the sun.
The
birch in the picture below was planted with Risutec planting machine. The
machine dug a hole and planted the seedling effortlessly. After the cocoon was
placed in the right position, the machine added the water and covered the
cocoon with soil. Manual labor was required only to place the cocoon, its lid
and the tube.
Compared
with the open-field plants, this birch has many more green leaves and its stem
is stronger. In a few weeks, without any caring and effort, it might be
difficult to find the little birch in the picture above among all the vegetation on
the field.
